Mike’s joint is often referred to as a technology and business blog, but it’s been obvious for a long time that the brand can do much, much more. We are no doubt in for a treat now as he and Heather set about to do just that. And we’ll have even more to talk with Mike about at mesh ‘07.

Give Arrington credit for hiring someone with such a high-profile/quality skill set, and having the ability to realize he doesn't have to be CEO.

I'm totally annoyed by having to even think about stuff that hasn't got anything to do with producing content. If some marketing guru saw the potential in my site and were ready to take over the promotion/marketing/PR aspects of my site (and the other sites which I'll be launching, well, very soon (; ) for a portion of the profits, I'd say yes immediately. BTW, I don't think this is strange at all - TechCrunch is not a blog anymore, it's a huge publication, not much different from PC World. You can only go so far on your own.
